Colored Pencil Hack w/Kelly ft. Modern Calla Lilies

Hello Crafters!

Recently I've been on a colored pencil kick but I get frustrated with how long it takes to build up beautiful color. I also haven't quite developed the ability to get a multi colored image - like when a flower starts out pink but the edges are yellow.

Until I can get it with pencils alone I developed a "hack" haha.

I stamped all my images in colors similar to those I was going to color in. It's not no line exactly it's just less line lol. I guess that's a thing now :)


Watch above or watch in HD at YouTube

By starting with a base wash of color, I only had to concentrate on blending in the other color with my colored pencils. This saved time and my sanity!

I hope you enjoyed today's project and are inspired to give it a try!
